Northview Church and Taylor University have partnered to offer a Graduate Residency that will equip emerging church leaders with the theological training and practical experience they need to be effective wherever God is leading them.

Our graduate residency program is a two-year ministry immersion. For 20 hours per week, residents serve in a ministry area that aligns with their particular calling under the guidance of a coach. Weekly one-on-one meetings with the coach focus on developing ministry skills and personal development. All residents come together for two hours each week to focus on growing as a leader and a disciple and to create rhythms of life that prevent burnout and promote flourishing.

The graduate residency is only for qualified applicants who are accepted by Northview Church and Taylor University. Graduate residents take courses taught by Taylor University faculty as they work toward their MA in Ministry degree throughout their residency. The hours a resident serves in ministry may be used toward ministry practicum for the degree.

Taylor University was named as the No. 1 best midwest college by U.S. News & World Report. To learn more about the MA in Ministry degree and to begin the application process, click here.
